50s Wiring long-shaft pots to upgrade a Les Paul Standard guitar

LP Standard Upgrade 50s Wiring

PriceFrom €80.00
  • This 50s wiring kit includes long-shaft pots designed to fit modern Les Paul Standard guitars. Intended for regular Gibson USA production models, it is also available with high-quality yet affordable componets. It comes fully prepared for easy installation and includes the following parts:

     

    -4 x CTS Soft Taper 500k or "'Burst Taper" 550k calibrated pots
    -2 x Orange Drop or Bumblebee 0.22 uF caps.
    -Vintage correct tinned copper buss wire

     

    The 50s wiring configuration offers a unique advantage by preserving clarity when you roll down the volume pot, similar to a treble bleed circuit but without its inherent drawbacks. Additionally, it introduces a subtle interaction between the tone knobs and the volume pot as you turn the tone knob down, altering the response.

     

    Our comprehensive kits offers all the necessary components for implementing vintage-correct wiring in your guitar. This ensures not only authenticity but also maintains the high-quality performance of your instrument.
